A Grief Observed (Unabridged)

A Grief Observed (Unabridged)

 


Author:
C.S. Lewis
Date: 01-JAN-2005
Narrator: Ralph Cosham


Written after his wife’s tragic death as a way of surviving the "mad midnight moments", A Grief Observed is C.S. Lewis’s honest reflection on the fundamental issues of life, death, and faith in the midst of loss. This work contains his concise, genuine reflections on that period: "Nothing will shake a man, or at any rate a man like me, out of his merely verbal thinking and his merely notional beliefs. He has to be knocked silly before he comes to his senses. Only torture will bring out the truth. Only under torture does he discover it himself." This is a beautiful and unflinchingly honest record of how even a stalwart believer can lose all sense of meaning in the universe, and how he can gradually regain his bearings.

The Cosmic Mind and the Submanifest Order of Being

The Cosmic Mind and the Submanifest Order of Being

 


Author:
Deepak Chopra
Date: 01-JAN-2005
Narrator: Deepak Chopra

In this fascinating lecture, Deepak Chopra, M.D., discusses the connection between the brain and the mind, and the controversy over what that connection is. He makes the point that consciousness is the ultimate reality, and it manifests both as the soul and universal spirit, which then slowly gives rise to both individual and cosmic intelligence.
